Jen-Yue Chiang raised to 4,500 from early position and picked up several calls before Danilo Di Pasque three-bet to 8,500 from late position. Chiang called and so did Joshua Duce.
The flop came 9♣10♦6♣ and all three players checked. The turn was the Q♣. Action checked to Di Pasque, who bet 10,000, which only Chiang called.
The river came the 5♠ and both players checked again to showdown. Chiang showed 10♣10♠ for a set of tens to win the pot as Di Pasque mucked his hand.

In a three-bet pot to the K♦7♥4♥ flop, Aristide Cochin check-raised from 7,000 to 21,000 from under the gun. Timo Kamphues on the button then announced all-in and Cochin called without any major hesitation.
Aristide Cochin: K♣Q♣
Timo Kamphues: A♦J♥
Kamphues was caught with the fingers in the cookie jar but gained some equity with the 8♥ turn. Cochin all but leaped out of his chair but had reason to relax when the 10♦ river secured his double for 69,000.

The pot stood at 24,500 with two players looking at a board of 3♥J♥7♠9♠.
Adrian Ibanescu, in the big blind, check-called a bet of 13,000 from Jean-Archibald Delafontaine, in the cutoff.
The 3♠ landed on the river and Ibanescu checked again. Delafontaine then placed a bet that looked large enough to put Ibanescu all in for his effective stack of 50,000. Ibanescu snap-folded.

Action folded around to Eric Wetzel, who shoved all in from the small blind for around 35,000. Alexandru Lupuleac made the call in the big blind and had Wetzel well covered as players flipped their cards.
Eric Wetzel: 8♥8♠
Alexandru Lupuleac: A♣8♣
The board ran out 5♣10♠4♥7♠A♠. Wetzel was well ahead with pocket eights, until Lupuleac paired his ace on the river. Wetzel let out a gasp and then stood to take his leave.
"At least I don't have to speak English anymore," said Wetzel.
Lupuleac laughed as he added yet more chips to his 300,000 stack.
